Java 1.5 = Java 5.0. They changed the numbering mechanism starting with v5/1.5. Sort of like Solaris did when they went from 2.6 to 7.0 (which was really 2.7). Anyway, like Chris said, any 1.5 version above _12 will probably work, and there's probably no reason to not get the most current one of

The Interface_Create form might be necessary to have your consoles be populated correctly. I would check at least all of the table fields on each of the main forms, and ensure that all of the feeding forms are also updated. This will catch Assignment records, Work Entries, Templates, etc. Rick
